I think you should keep your delusions, and I will keep my PERSONAL knowledge after living a healthy, satisfying, and productive life. I am very grateful to my husband for his willingness to have a vasectomy, and he never felt "mutilated!" Some men's self-esteem and "manhood" is not linked to how many spermatozoid they can eject!!! And, I believe I know my sister and her husband of 52 years a little better than you do! Do you think she INTENDED to have 5 children in just under 5 years? Her life, and that of her children was made a LOT more difficult because of the many pregnancies in such a short time. Today, she is obviously a very surrounded, very happy mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. . . Have you ever considered that you may not know everything there is to know about pregnancy, love, birth control, God, and family values? No. . .that was a dumb question. . .obviously you would never consider being wrong! OTHERS who don't fully bend to your views MUST be wrong! So funny! And. . .I believe I posted the accurate intepretation of the Didache as "non believable" and not part of even the "dogmas" or "canons" of Christianity. So. . . I think YOU may want to read more about it yourself! But I am done with this silly discussion with you. . . . Enjoy your life!
God killed many people as mentioned in the Bible, for rather petty reasons. If he is so disregarding of born human beings, why would he care about a fetus?
You have stated that if medical treatment will knowingly end in the death of the fetus, that this is okay. Basically you are saying that an abortion is okay as long as you don't call it an abortion.
Making healthy, functioning biological systems dysfunctional in mutilation. Wouldn't you consider intentionally blinding yourself mutilation? I used to think like you--I was wrong then. So yes, I know what it is to be wrong.
They're using contraception which prevents conception. Seriously Make, some of the conclusions that you come to and how you reach those conclusions is really strange.
Hahaha! 98%????? Once again the OP can't even get the facts of this anti-Catholic hit piece right. Women for choice?......lmao!!!! 98% of Catholic women are not using BC.
The evidence shows that 98% of Catholic women ARE using BC. http://www.theatlantic.com/business...ps-far-behind-on-birth-control-issues/249703/ As a woman and a lifelong Catholic, I sometimes marvel that faith can flourish despite the hierarchy's not infrequent disdain for the faithful -- particularly the women faithful. Over the past century, birth control has improved women's health, enhanced children's prospects, and helped lift millions of families out of poverty. It would be difficult to find any other single issue that most Catholic women could agree on, much less the 98 percent who have thoughtfully concluded that they must do what they can to prevent unintended pregnancies.
Yes, unlike you, I prefer to think for myself and not have someone dictate to me what to believe. You should try it too.
Preventing conception isn't abortion, though. Its no diiferent to a man masturbating or a woma having her period. If egg hasn't met sperm, there is nothing to worry about.
I suppose one could say that about any stage in the human life span depending on what sort they want to be able to kill. Infancy means nothing unless the toddler reaches adolescence.
Assistance provided to a toddler to enable him/her to reach adolescence is entirely voluntary. Assistance provided to a zef should also be voluntary.
Parents can sign off on obligations, it's called "adoption." Caring for children is a voluntary act. I mean a zef. Zygote, embryo, fetus. No need for your emotionally-laden designations.
Creation of the balstocyst is ALWAYS voluntary except in the less than 1% of cases where rape or incest results in pregnancy.
